The Federal Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Reduction is implementing the programme with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), support from Germany and state governments.
The mobile service will provide access to birth registration, National Identification Number (NIN) enrolment, Bank Verification Number (BVN), SIM cards, bank accounts and social protection services.
The initiative targets communities where residents struggle to reach essential services. Instead of travelling long distances, people will access registration and other services through mobile teams brought to their communities.
Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Reduction, Dr Bernard Doro, announced the initiative, saying it would help ensure displaced persons and vulnerable communities are not left behind.
The programme is scheduled for launch on Wednesday, November 11, 2026.
How to benefit
Residents should watch for announcements from the ministry and state governments on locations and team schedules. The announcement does not indicate that the initiative provides cash grants or direct payments. Further service updates are expected.
